We look at the division of 23867450 by 138 
We want to divide 23867450 by 138.

Moving on to step 1:
138 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 138

Going ahead to step 2:
138 can be fit into 23 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 238 / 138

On to step 3:
138 goes into 238 1 times with a remainder of 100.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 138 from 238, we get 100.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 100, then carry on: 1006 / 138

Advancing to step 4:
The number 138 fits into 1006 7 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtracting 966 from 1006 leaves us with 40.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 407 / 138

Advancing to step 5:
The number 138 fits into 407 2 times, leaving a remainder of 131.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 172.0
Subtract 276 from 407 to get 131.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 131 and continue with: 1314 / 138

Let's proceed to step 6:
138 can be fit into 1314 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1729.0
Subtracting 1242 from 1314 leaves us with 72.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 725 / 138

On to step 7:
138 goes into 725 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17295.0
Subtract 690 from 725 to get 35.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 350 / 138

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 350 by 138, we get 2 and a remainder of 74.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 172952.0
If we take 276 away from 350, we end up with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 9:
740 divided by 138 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 172952.5
If we take 690 away from 740, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
138 goes into 500 3 times with a remainder of 86.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 172952.53
If we take 414 away from 500, we end up with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 138 fits into 860 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 172952.536
Deduct 828 from 860 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 138 fits into 320 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 172952.5362
If we take 276 away from 320, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 440 by 138, we get 3 with a remainder of 26.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 172952.53623
Deduct 414 from 440 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
138 can be fit into 260 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 122.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 172952.536231
Deduct 138 from 260 and we're left with 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 138 fits into 1220 8 times, leaving a remainder of 116.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 172952.5362318
If we take 1104 away from 1220, we end up with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 1160 by 138, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 172952.53623188
Deduct 1104 from 1160 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Our division results in 172952.53623188 with a remaining 5.6e-08.
